Question 1

+3 marksOne correct option

Which of the following statements is true?

Statement 1: For every graph GG and every maximum flow on GG, there always exists an edge such that increasing the capacity on that edge will increase the maximum flow that's possible in the graph.

Statement 2: Suppose the maximum (s,t)(s,t)-flow of some graph has value ff. Now we increase the capacity of every edge by 1. Then the maximum (s,t)(s,t)-flow in this modified graph will have value at most f+1f + 1.
